Nobody is asked to use the following when writing or speaki= ng real Lojban.

Everything here should be marked as exclusively e= xperimental and (.a'o) as the source for further consideration.

None of the existing rules of Lojban (the baseline) is changed.

All of the rafsi are baselined. Creating ne= w ones is therefore a change to the baseline.=A0

stevo=A0

Rafybri=

I always noticed how lujvo break the t= ransparent logic of bridi.

Let's look at {nitkla} which means {klama lo cnita}.
Alt= hough it's much easier to learn {nitkla} rather then "descend"= ; (in English they differ in sounding considerably)
nobody can gu= ess that {nitkla} means "descend" and doesn't mean "go i= n a lower position under something" without getting the translation be= forehand.

Although anybody is free to say "klama lo cnita&qu= ot; instead
it will lead to lengthier speech.

What I suggest is to glue bridi together into a new form of lujvo cal= led "rafybri".

That's how it works.=A0
1. First rule
4 new rafsi
zve <=3D be fe lo
zvi <=3D be fi lo=A0
zvo <= ;=3D be fo lo=A0

zvu <=3D be fu lo=A0
and=A0
jve (fifth rafsi)

When composing rafybri you replace gismu with rafsi a= nd "be fe lo" etc. with new rafsi of ZVE series.

2. cmavo attached to rafsi don't lead to the emergence of a = new meaning. Therefore selpa'i =A0is a synonym for "se prami"= (actually the second rule is not a new rule at all).

Applying this rule we can dramatically compress the length of lojbanic= jufra.

And if we replace cnita with dizlo in our example we can = save even two syllables.

klama lo cnita =3D klama lo dizlo =3D kl= a+zve+dzi =3D klazvedzi

blanu je crino =3D blajveri'o. In this case I refer= to {blajveri'o} as to a synonym of {blanu je crino} (blue-green). I su= ggest that no new meaning is added here.

In other = words rafybri can be constructed from tanru only if the latter have logical= operators

("pelnimre tricu" can't be compressed into rafybri).
